L7 Problems and Firmware Versions

I have an unbranded L7 I am using on T-Mobile US. The software is:

Software Version: R4513_G_08.B7.DAR_RB
Flex Version: SE4639AB1F110C - 2.0.1.V8.1.SI.P0.0.1.P1.4.10.P1.0.SJ.SI.3.P1.P1.SJ

The three problems I have with my phone and the "DAR" version are:

(1) The phone sometimes gets into a state where it will not makea call. After dialling, it displays "Calling..." but the call is never connected. The way to correct this state is to power down/up.

(2) When powering down, the phone requires two presses of the Off button. After the second press, it shows a white sreen and then shuts down.

(3) The phone sometimes reboots during a call.

I see a newer firmware version "DCR" on several sites. Can anyone explain the differences between R4513...DAR and R4513...DCR versions. I have downloaded the following three flash files:

A. R4513_G_08[1].B7.DCR_RB_PDS015_LP002E_DRM0101_JPJAVA_G_08_L7_06 _00_01R_SE5743AXXU1118_1FF1L7-R4513_G_08.rar
B. L7-R4513_G_08[1].B7.DCR_RB_PDS015_LP0039_DRM0101_VSTGERMAN206_JPJA VA_G_08_L7_06_00_03R_GSTL7RTAT149_1FF.part02.rar
C. L7-R4513_G_08[1].B7.DCR_RB_PDS015_LP0039_DRM0101_VSTGERMAN206_JPJA VA_G_08_L7_06_00_03R_GSTL7RTAT149_1FF.part02.rar

The file A is 12MB. Files B and C are 8MB each. Does anyone know the differences between A and B+C, and how to flash with the two B+C files?

Any help would be appreciated.
